Look at all the crossings here!

Anchorage, AK

Cleveland, OH (the crossings ahead of this have A-gates - there's even a signal on the left side ahead that's for a bridge pathway! )
http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=41.4 ... 1,,0,13.33

(bridge sidewalk signal)

the front lights are clear LED and one red LED and the back lights are 12"x20" GRS plastic lights.
That must be pretty cool to see active

The GRS lights are fairly common in Alaska, based on the crossings I've seen on Street view.

I like the odd angle of this cantilever (plus it has GRS lights... and the mast signal across the tracks has em too!):

Also check out how high the mast lights are mounted on this cantilever (with more GRS lights on the opposing cantilever too!):

Were the 8" ones recalled as well, or just the 12"?

The Anchorage Crossings were very interesting.
Especially the one with the gates way out in front of the cantilevers.
